FreeBSD hasn't an official package for downloading. You have to compile
it on the hard way...

And very important: Don't forget to set LOCALIZED_LANG variable!!!

They both write EOF.

There is only one EOF: The EOF.

weof is not useless. There are some file operations without writing an
EOF, like streams or something like that, but tar and dump are writing
with an EOF at the end of files :-)

That means, that after ervery dump, the tape drive is automatically
writing an EOF. It is not necessary to write with

mt -f /dev/nsa0 weof

the EOF again.

Hello list,

one example: If I have three partitions and I want to backup every day
these partitions, will I need 21 tapes?

I ask because it seems it is not possible to place more than one dump on

No it is not formatted as FAT16. When I use manually:
# mount -t msdosfs -o longnames /dev/da0s1 /mnt
and then copy files on the empty USB-Stick via:
# cp * /mnt
then the longnames are recognized... This problem is only appearing when I use 
amd!

But it was a good guess :-)

Maybe other ideas?

Historical question about INDEX-file in /usr/ports

Hello list,

a small question for the expirienced users of FreeBSD:

At which time the name of "INDEX.db" to "INDEX-?.db" changed? (I suppose 
during the creating time of FreeBSD 6) And then it was changed, was the 
database format also been changed?

The problem is that in these two chapters of the handbook is not
handling freebsd-update... And if you use freebsd-update you need not
necessarily to do a buildkernel or buildworld.

can not add a partition

2007-06-13 Thread Stevan Tiefert
Hello list,

I left a little bit space left in my slice during the installation. Now
I wanted to use this left space to create a gbde-partition.

When I use sysinstall and create in menu "Label" a new partition and I
hit "W" to write my changes to disk an error appears, that label didn't
created the partition I wanted.

My question is why can I not add a partition in my existing slice? On
what should I take care maybe?

Hello,

Video Output is supported by the X Window System and his drivers, not
really by FreeBSD.

Look at http://www.x.org or in the man-pages like e.g. "man 4x sis" for
the video output capabilities for the sis-chipsets...

I would say that this is not normal... :-( I read

I've done a diff between your fiel GENERIC and novellkernel:

Can you say me where do you got theses options from? I can not find any

I will use linux-mbrola only the manual adding of missing libs is

Ports forbids me to install compat3x-i386

2007-05-06 Thread Stevan Tiefert
Hello list,

I need to install the port misc/compat3x-i386 as a dependency for the
port audio/mbrola. The port misc/compat3x-i386 is marked as IGNORE and
it returns an error after "portinstall compat3x-i386":

vagabund# portinstall compat3x-i386
** Port marked as IGNORE: misc/compat3x:
is forbidden: "FreeBSD-SA-03:05.xdr, FreeBSD-SA-03:08.realpath

After that:

setenv PACKAGESITE
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-6-stable/Latest/

and:

pkg_add -r openoffice.org

It still installs the version 1.1.5... It seems they forgot until now to
update this link...

I have written to [EMAIL PROTECTED] the maintainer of this
port. Now I will wait until they answer...

The problem I pointed to is, that at the RELEASE_6_2 two packages of
firefox and openoffice.org exists and via pkg_add -r I receive the older
package of them both, because the links in .../Latest/ are pointing to
the older packages, but the newer packages are available for RELEASE_6_2
(I don't mean RELENG_6)!

That is not that I mean!

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/packages/editors/openoffice.org-2.0.4.tbz
exists. But the Link:

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/packages/Latest/openoffice.org.tbz
is linked with

ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/packages/All/openoffice.org-1.1.5_2.tbz

It is a simple change with ln. Not more! openoffice.org 2.0 was already
created during the RELEASE-6.2-process.

Still again: Why is this link showing to an older package, when to the
same time a newer package exist for the RELEASE_6_2 (not RELENG_6)?

Why is 6.2-RELEASE/packages/Latest/ not latest enough?

2007-05-03 Thread Stevan Tiefert
Hello list,

I have installed via pkg_add -r various packages for my 6.2-RELEASE. I
have recognized that on this way I will not get always the newest
package.

When I use "pkg_add -r firefox" I got version 1.5 but 2.0 exist on the
freebsd-ftp-server. When I use "pkg_add -r openoffice.org" I got version
1.1 but 2.0.4 exists on the freebsd-ftp-server.

I looked at
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/6.2-RELEASE/packages/Latest/
an I saw that the symbolic links are not showing to the newest
packages...

The handbook says with pkg_add -r we could get the newest package for
the release (I am not talking about stable-packages and PACKAGESITE
variable), but the symbolic links are maybe not updated, isn't it?

With regards
Stevan Tiefert

It does the makes with BATCH=yes set. The main effect of this is that
it prevents the options menus from showing, which means ports build

Error with PAM-Authentification/X-Terminal

2007-04-12 Thread Stevan Tiefert

Hello list!

I have two Hosts. Host notebook and host aixa. aixa is running FreeBSD 
6.2 and XDM. notebook is running Cygwin/X (Windows XP). notebook is 
acting as a X-Terminal and he is displaying the login-screen of aixa.


When I try to login on aixa via XDMP-Protocol I can read on aixa (XDM) 
in a xconsole following:


Apr 12 21:45:05 aixa xdm: pam_sm_close_session(): no utmp record for 
notebook:0


On notebook I see the login-screen, I type my login and password, the 
login-screen disappears and appears again. It seems that the login failed!


It seems for me a problem with the pam-module but I have no idea... 
Maybe somebody out there?

Hello list,

Problem with Enabling DRI

Hello list,

I tried to enable the nice composite features of KDE on my workstation. 
It seems they work, but very slow. The KERNEL contains "device 
agp", /boot/loader.conf contains "sis_load="YES"" and that are some 
interesting outputs:

"dmesg | grep drm" outputs:

It seems that drmSetBusid causing problems, but I don't know how to 
resolve it. Any ideas?

... many hours and a "portupgrade -R kdelibs" later ...

Hello Kris,

that is the problem... The other mail I sent before handles abaout the 
kdelibs-upgrade I did two days ago. And you will see, that the building 
stopped where cups should be integrated. You see also, that it failed and 
that was the reason I installed the kdelibs-nocups port. The kdelibs don't 
want to be installed. I don't understand why...

Excuse me! It seems that I need sleep :-( It is 3:30 am in my country...

That is the right log:

general question about packages and ports working together

2007-01-10 Thread Stevan Tiefert
Hello list,

portaudit suggested me to update kdelibs. Ok I've done it via ports. Two days 
later I wanted to add the package de-koffice-i18n. The package 
de-koffice-i18n tried to install also my unsecure kdelibs again, if I hadn't 
stopped it I would now have two kdelibs on my harddrive...

May it be that the packages are not accepting the newer versions from the 
ports?

First: If it is not supported anymore from Adobe, than we should kill 
this port from the ports-tree.

Second: There was no special interest in using a java-app instead of a 
native binary. It was a pitty to try a ver ld port... :-(

Hello,

I've tried also to start acrobat.jar directly, also with "java -jar 
acrobat.jar". I got the same errors. I've read your link also. That 
means that this problem is more than 5 years old!!! After reading the 
link, I was remebering that I was not able to install the dependend 
jre-1.1.x-port, because therefore it is necessary to install compat-3.x 
port also, but it was forbidden for FreeBSD 6.x!!! That was the reason 
I installed the diablo-x-port! After that I tried to start 
AcrobatViewer with the gotten errors described in my first e-mail.

It seems that the port acrobatviewer-1.1 should only be guilty for 
FreeBSD 5.x. That let me come to the conclusion: Kill this port from 
the ports-tree!

That is happening,... after that I done following:

$ sh -x /usr/local/bin/AcrobatViewer redbook.pdf 2> error
$ cat error | grep expr
+ expr lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  54 19 Dez 21:34

+ expr 1 + 1
+ expr lax.jar : \([/]\)
+ expr 2 + 1
+ expr 3 + 1
+ expr /usr/local/bin/javavm : .*/\(.*\)
$

You see, at the 4th time "expr" was called in the script the error appears!!!

My debugging knowlegde is not so great to know what to do to repair the 
script!!!

The port print/acrobatviewer is very small! Please install the port to read 
the shell-script "AcrobatViewer".

Hello,

this thread is confusing me... An example: If I ever would have a problem with 
the FreeBSD-Kernel you would suggest me to use a linux-kernel?

I have a problem with acrobatviewer... I wanted maybe a hint or solution with

When I used dev=3,0,0 the CD-RW was connected on a PCI-EIDE-Host-Adapter. I 
thought that the chipset of my mainboard don't support any correct writing of 
CD-DAs. But the EIDE-Controller of the mainboard and the Host-Adapter do have 
both the same results... dev=1,0,0 is the same CD-RW connected on the 
mainboard.

Thanks for your off-topic message... You helped very well to solve a 
problem. :-(
Now everybody knows where the problem is, or not? There are many ftp-sites 
where IE can access them without problems. But not ftpd from FreeBSD 5.4 in 
this special case...
Question again, why? Is that a special problem oft ftpd? I think it seems to 
be an IE-problem, but what is happening between IE and ftpd causing this

FreeBSD telnetd and Microsoft Internet Explorer

2005-11-30 Thread Stevan Tiefert

Hello list,

on my machine there runs a telnetd started via inetd. It is not an 
anonymous ftpd. When I access the directories of an user with Internet 
Explorer I got strange outputs on my screen. The described szene is not 
happening if I use the telnet on cmd.exe.


Internet Explorer is showing the filenames and time (of the ftpd) 
together as one filename?!? That means on ftpd:


$ ls -al .login
-rw-r--r-- 1 user user 248 29 Nov 14:39 .login

and in IE I see the icon with filename "14:39 .login"!!!

Is there a workaround for that? Why is ftpd making such funny things? I 
can not read "14:39 .login" because IE says only file not found...


With regards
Stevan

You put the boot.flp, kern1.flp, kern2.flp and then again the boot.flp. 
After you put boot.flp you must see the beastie-loader-screen. And there 
is a menu point (I think 6 Go to Loader prompt) you have to select. 
There you can do a "set [anything]" and a finally "boot". Note that your 
changes are only temporary for this one boot! You have to config 
/boot/loader.conf finally again.

Problem with burning CD-DAs

2005-11-27 Thread Stevan Tiefert

Hello list,

I can rip without problems a CD-DA to a wav-file (cdda2wav). I played 
this file in a wav-player without problems. When I burn these wav-files 
with cdrecord to a CD-R and then play this CD-R on a CD-Player I hear 
the songs but with a disturbing rushing! No klicks! I hear the song with 
a rush like a storm! All Audio-Tracks, the whole CD, rushing!


I tried the same procedure with a different harddisk, different 
IDE-Host-Controller, different OS (... Win98), different CD-Rs,... 
Always this described problem.


Could it be that an device is producing during the burning an 
interference that is copied together with the songs on the CD-R??? Maybe 
the AT-AC/DC-Transormator in the AT-case? Or maybe the chipset of the 
mainboard?


I have the mainboard FIC PA2005 with the VIA Apollo 580 VP-chipset 
(07/15/97-VT82C580VP-2A5LA008C-00).

longest uptime

2005-04-28 Thread Stevan Tiefert
Hello list,
if I want to do a uptime-record I have always the possiblity to shut 
down daemons (when needed) and start them again, without rebooting the 
system! That is very nice! I had many days and weeks running my nicely 
freebsd-server. BUT every time I updated the patchlevel (in example 
5.2.1-RELEASE to 5.2.1-RELEASE-p14) I had to reboot my system. But then 
the counter of uptime is starting at zero again :-(

Question: Is there a possiblity to run the system inclusive patching it, 
without rebooting? Goal is to run a system maybe longer than a year!!!

Fact was also that the 5.2.1-security-branch should supported till Oct

Hello again,

what do you mean with src? The source in /usr/src or the binaries?

And a second question: If I update with portupdate, then I am NOT updating the 
base-system, isn't it (like the shell, kernel and so on...)? How to update 
the base-system?

Understanding differences between releases and ports

2005-04-15 Thread Stevan Tiefert
Hello list,

I have problems understanding a base concept :-(

Is that right, when I install 5.2.1-RELEASE and I install the 
ports-distribution with cvsup and keep them up to date, that the ports I 
build afterwards with "make install" are newer than the 
release-precompiled-packages distributed with 5.2.1-RELEASE?

Is that right that this procedure (with cvsup) is NOT ONLY correcting paths 
for the distfiles of ports in the ports-tree, then also replaces old versions 
of ports by newer ones?

If so, does it mean that I could use 5.2.1-RELEASE and an updated portstree 
resulting in getting in example gnome 2.8 and kde 3.4 and so on? Have I to 
see the RELEASE-version abstracted separated from the portstree? And how is 
compatibility granted between different RELEASE-versions and the 
up-to-date-ports-tree?

Someone already made a suggestion, but you should know that bind in

Is sshd running as an independent daemon and also

If you have  sshd_enable="YES"  in /etc/rc.conf,

Hello Christian,

that is senseless, if the network-card is working sometimes and sometimes

Hello Nathan,

in a security advisory in part V. is written:

V.   Solution

Perform one of the following:

1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to 4-STABLE or 5-STABLE, or to the
RELENG_5_3, RELENG_5_2, RELENG_4_10, or RELENG_4_8 security branch dated
after the correction date.

Can you say me how to get of a running system the date? Because if the
system is after the correction date I do not have to download via ftp. If
not I have to...

Hello Nathan,

I need the date/time to decide if I need to download a version from the

Hello David,

it is possible to do this, but you need if the Windows XP NTFS-Partition
is using the whole disk a partition-resizer. The free resizer of FreeBSD
is not able to resize NTFS-Partions, but FAT16, VFAT and
FAT32-partitions... You need a commercial resizer or you kill Windows
XP and install it first, then create a partition for Windows XP but much more
smaller, because of later when you want to install FreeBSD with
boot-manager!

Hello list,

when I am watching the /var/log/auth.log I see many missed logins from
IP-addresses I never tried to login from. Am I right that they is a hacker
trying to login on my mashine, because he was using loginnames I never
created on my mashine like patrick, lydia, green, admin, and so on...?

With regards
Stevan Tiefert
